SynRpcServer.exe in System32 folder

[Panagiss]

Hi,

I got an alert "Globally rare process execution from a signed process" and after investigating the process is SynRpcServer.exe

which not uncommon and also the host uses a fingerprint sensor so it should all make sense.

But the interesting parts are on the causality chain are:

• SynRpcServer.exe executed "SynRpcServer.exe".
• The acting process is signed by Synaptics Incorporated.
• This signed vendor, image name and executed process combination is globally uncommon.

Furthermore the location of the exe is in System32 folder:
C:\Windows\System32\SynRpcServer.exe

Hash (of the parent SynRpcServer.exe) 10a416072f3e581e2943f07453c5484e503c47131e48674245564030de2dd531


Any thoughts on this?

Hi @Panagiss, thanks for reaching us using the Live Community.

What module is generating the alert? BTP? Analytics?

Maybe the fingerprint driver/app has been updated and it is behaving different as before.
